My first emplyer from 20 years ago is about to retire and I have been invited to the party. What would be a good and appropriate present to give him. I worked for him for 3 years and have not been in touch for 12 years.

Well if you can remember, what interests or hobbies did your old boss have? Golfing, boating, etc. Get him something that relates to his interests. Or when all else fails, a nice,expensive bottle of wine works perfectly.

My mothers and fathers merely gave me £a hundred for my birthday, as i will positioned it in the direction of some thing which i will ascertain i elect interior the destiny. even with the shown fact that this does suck out all the exciting and excitement out of beginning presents. in case you do not have a puppy already, then I advise a small dogs. that's precisely what you have chose at your age :D

do you remember what sorts of things he liked? Golf? Scotch? Dogs? Golfing Scotch Dogs? Did you and he share any interests in common?
Do you know or can you find out what his retirement plans are?
Get him something that fits into one of these categories. For instance, my boss kept talking about how many hummingbirds there were in Phoenix, where she was moving, so I got her an elaborate hummingbird feeder.

A good bottle of wine if he likes it.... A good, collectiable book.
Do you know his interests - golf? A gift certification, a nice set of golf balls.. What's your budget?

If I were you I won't go or give any gifts...........why? because he didn't bother to keep in touch with you for 12 yrs!!! nor you with him.
